Chapter 169: The pattern suddenly opened

"Comrade policeman, I can assure you that there is no problem with the health care products we sell, all of them are regular and legal, with batch numbers and procedures, and the products of serious listed companies ......."

"Are you so sure?"

"Sure!"

"Then do you know that the health products you sell only have two ingredients: starch and milk powder?"

"Slander! This is an absolute slander! ”

"According to what we know, you own 40% of the shares of Zhang Damin Pharmaceutical Company in your name, right?"

"Yes, but ......"

“……”

Jiangcheng City Bureau.

When Gao Heng and another policeman in charge of interrogating Li Chaoxiang came out of the interrogation room, the expressions on their faces were a little solemn.

The outcome of the interrogation was not satisfactory.

Li Chaoxiang insisted that there was no problem with the health care products they sold to the outside world, and denied that there was any intention and behavior to defraud by selling health care products, and repeatedly emphasized that the products and sales were legal and regular.

And those under him also seemed to have discussed in advance and unified their voices.

It's all pretty much the same thing.

This made Gao Heng's investigation progress suddenly enter a state of stuckness.

In fact, they now have a lot of evidence.

The on-site recording provided by Ye Xiangyang, the process of activities filmed by the surveillance in the community, and the relevant witnesses......

The only thing missing now is that it is not completely certain whether the health care products they sold on the site today have the same problem.

Even if the test report provided by Ye Xiangyang is authoritative, it can only prove that there are problems with the health care products that Uncle Zhang bought yesterday, and it cannot directly prove that there are problems with the others.

All the health products on the scene have been sealed and brought back, and the people from the laboratory department have also tested them as soon as possible.

Once it is confirmed that there are problems, then no matter how Li Chaoxiang and they quibble, it is meaningless.

With the efforts of colleagues in the laboratory department, the test results came out as quickly as possible.

Indeed, just like Ye Xiangyang's inspection report, there are only two ingredients in it: starch and milk powder.

Thereupon.

Gao Heng and the others interrogated Li Chaoxiang again.

"Comrade policeman, I really don't know this!"

"That company has 40 percent of your shares, don't you know?"

"I really don't know, Zhang Damin, it must be Zhang Damin's ghost, I really didn't expect him to be so black-hearted, comrade police, I was wronged, it's all that Zhang Damin's ghost......"

"Don't worry about this, that Zhang Damin can't run."

In fact, even if Li Chaoxiang didn't say it, Zhang Damin, who had never shown up, had already been monitored by them, and when it was confirmed that all the health products at the scene were fake, he was arrested as soon as possible.

It's already on the way back to the police station.

As early as the beginning of the establishment, they noticed this Zhang Damin Pharmaceutical Company.

If there is a problem with health care products, Zhang Damin Pharmaceutical Company, which produces this health care product behind it, is obviously a bigger problem.

Not only Zhang Damin, but also the relevant personnel of this company were also "invited" back.

The production and sale of fake and shoddy products, and the amount of money is particularly huge, and the current situation is at least tens of millions, and it is directly suspected of criminal offenses.

As for Li Chaoxiang saying that he didn't know anything about it, it wasn't that he said it.

……

The next day.

Through the overnight investigation of the Jiangcheng City Bureau, the entire case has made leaps and bounds.

Preliminary results are in.

At the end of last year, Zhang Damin and Li Chaoxiang conspired to acquire a small pharmaceutical factory on the verge of bankruptcy, and obtained an OEM order for Kangjialai, a health care product of a listed company, through a relationship, and gradually replaced the raw materials with milk powder and starch for a period of time after it was officially put into production, so as to continue production in its name.

The two also have a division of labor.

Zhang Damin focused on production, while Li Chaoxiang set up a sales team and began to sell to the outside world in the form of direct sales from manufacturers.

Even if some people who have bought their products realize that there is a problem, because they use the popularity and brand effect of Kangjialai, a listed health care product, as a cover, and there is no problem with the relevant procedures, many people have no way to take them.

In this way, with the help of the protection of the cloak of legality, they engaged in illegal and criminal acts for half a year.

It wasn't until this time that it was debunked.

Even if there had been speculations for a long time, after the real confirmation, Ye Xiangyang, who had come over in the morning to understand the situation and follow up the progress, was also indignant at their despicable behavior.

It's too cunning and too shameless.

Won't their conscience hurt to earn this kind of black-hearted money?

Fortunately, they didn't add any harmful substances to it in a frenzy, otherwise the victims would be far more than a monetary loss.

In addition to Li Chaoxiang and Zhang Damin, the two masterminds and ringleaders involved in the crime, the management of Zhang Damin's pharmaceutical company and those salesmen were also accomplices.

However, many of them claim to be unaware.

According to the provisions, if you do not know about it, it generally does not constitute the crime of fraud and does not bear criminal responsibility.

However, whether or not to know, in addition to being clearly informed, also includes the fact that one should have known.

Thinking that they have been with Li Chaoxiang for so long, and they are so skilled in routines and words, it is impossible not to notice any problems, right?

This depends not only on how the person confesses and defends, but also on what other criminal suspects say, how witnesses testify, and how the victim accuses.

Once determined, the end of going in is inevitable.

According to the relevant provisions of the Criminal Law on the crime of fraud, as well as the amount of money they defrauded, it may take more than ten years.

As for Li Chaoxiang and Zhang Damin, these leading elements......

According to the crime of producing or selling counterfeit and shoddy products as provided for in Article 140 of the Criminal Law, where a producer or seller adulterates or adulterates a product, passes off a fake product as genuine, shoddy or passes off a substandard product as a qualified product, and the sales amount is more than 2 million yuan, he shall be sentenced to 15 years imprisonment or life imprisonment, and shall also be fined not less than 50% but not more than 2 times the sales amount or confiscation of property.

Because it constitutes the crime of fraud and the crime of producing and selling counterfeit and shoddy products at the same time, the punishment for a felony is to be selected according to the principle of imaginary competition, at least 15 years.

Not only them, but even the listed company that authorized them to OEM Kangjialai's products will also be jointly investigated by multiple departments.

This matter has attracted great attention from the province.

No one can run.

Judging from the amount of eucalyptus involved and the number of people involved, this wave can be said to be a big eucalyptus detected by the Jiangcheng City Bureau this year.

Ye Xiangyang, who fully understands the situation, is also a little numb.

I thought this was just an ordinary eucalyptus using the promotion of health care products to defraud, but I didn't expect it to be so exaggerated.

The method is not complicated, but the method is too cunning to be noticeable for a while.

"Tell me, how did you find them this time?"

"It's also a coincidence, I didn't know they were making such a big deal."

"You've had a lot of luck, how many times?"

"Is there a bonus this time?"

"You...... I'll ask the money team to help you ask, and if you don't, I'll help you apply for it, but this time I broke such a big eucalyptus, as a whistleblower, there will definitely be a reward on it......"

Gao Heng was speechless.

Not counting this time, how much bonus did Ye Xiangyang receive from their police during this time?

His salary and benefits for a whole year are not comparable.

If Ye Xiangyang is an insider of their police, these credits alone can directly make him happy.

"I ask you seriously, the old people in our community were defrauded yesterday, as well as the money of those who were deceived before, can all the money be recovered, and how long will it take to return it?"

Regarding the bonus, Ye Xiangyang also mentioned it casually, and soon asked about the things he really cared about.

Ye Xiangyang specially asked Cai Chunhong to make statistics, and yesterday alone, the amount of money defrauded by the elderly in their community was as high as millions.

No way.

The event was so popular.

Especially the lottery that was held on the spot......

Aside from everything else, that lottery is actually quite "real".

At least it's a little more reliable than the sweepstakes in those games.

"This... It's really hard to say, because the number of people who have been deceived is relatively large, and the situation is more complicated, and we need to verify it further......"

Ye Xiangyang nodded, indicating understanding.

There must be a process and time for the police to handle the case, and each situation must be verified in place.

The only good news is that this time the police acted relatively quickly, and Li Chaoxiang and Zhang Damin, who were the main conspirators, did not realize the danger, so they failed to transfer most of the funds in the first place.

In the following time, the police will contact the victim to refund the defrauded amount after verifying the situation.

……

Back in the car.

Ye Xiangyang was not in a hurry to go back, but after clearing his mind, he took out the laptop in the car.

Half an hour later.

A press release is released.

After checking and revising, Ye Xiangyang sorted out the photos taken at the scene yesterday and sent them to the newspaper.

Around the same time, the police also posted a notice on the Internet that the case had been cracked.

The content of the announcement naturally does not involve too many details, and many netizens who don't know the inside story also began to discuss and speculate after paying attention to this case.

If you want to satisfy your curiosity and learn more about it, you will have to wait for this issue of Jiangcheng Evening News in the afternoon.

Drive back to the complex.

Before he got home, Ye Xiangyang found that his downstairs was surrounded by a large group of people.

Ye Xiangyang thought that something had happened again, and soon found that most of the people gathered here were the elderly who bought the health care products promoted by Li Chaoxiang and them at the event yesterday, as well as their families.

Cai Chunhong and the people in the community were also here, calming everyone and maintaining order at the same time.

Thinking that they had already seen the announcement posted by the police on the Internet, they knew that they had been deceived, and they didn't know where they heard that Ye Xiangyang went to the city bureau to follow up and interview in the morning, so they came here to wait for him so that they could understand the situation.

At present, what they are most concerned about is whether and when they can get their money back.

For these, Ye Xiangyang had no way to give any guarantees and affirmative answers, so he could only reveal what he knew to them and let them feel at ease.

Compared with those victims who almost failed to chase them, they are actually relatively "lucky" this time.

Especially Cai Chunhong has been reminding everyone to issue invoices on the spot, and Li Chaoxiang didn't guard against this because he didn't realize that he had been exposed.

In the past, if a consumer asked for an invoice, Li Chaoxiang usually issued it.

If you don't take the initiative to ask for it, then you just save this step.

It is precisely because of this that everyone basically has invoices in their hands, which is of great help to the police to verify and get back the money they have been defrauded.

The money, it is estimated that it will not come back immediately.

But this result is already more acceptable to them.

If you don't accept it, there's no other way!

As everyone left one after another, only Ye Xiangyang, Cai Chunhong and Uncle Zhang were left here.

"Hey, how can it be a scam!"

Uncle Zhang sighed.

At the beginning, he was most convinced that the other party was a fraud, but after experiencing this series of things, he couldn't accept this fact.

Originally, Uncle Zhang changed his mind and thought that they were just false propaganda and sales fraud, not fraud.

As a result, after sparing a circle, he went around again.

The key is that he also "added" 8,000 yuan in the middle.

Uncle Zhang, who sighed, looked at Ye Xiangyang and asked again: "Then can I still ask them for a refund of one and three compensations?" ”

"There may be no way around this. Ye Xiangyang shook his head, a little helpless, "The crime of fraud is not applicable to punitive damages, how much property damage has been caused, the other party only needs to return the compensation according to the actual situation." ”

Seeing Uncle Zhang's depressed appearance, Ye Xiangyang explained: "Even if they are compensated according to the standards of the other party's sales of fake and shoddy products and consumer fraud, they will definitely not be able to take out so much money." ”

According to the actual situation, Uncle Zhang can get back the 12,000 that he gave out, which is already a good result.

In real life, many victims of fraud may not be able to get back the money they were defrauded in their lives.

Speaking of which, whether it was the first 4,000 yuan at the beginning or the second 8,000 yuan later, Uncle Zhang deliberately gave the money to the other party knowing that there was a problem.

I originally wanted to do justice in my own way, but I ended up trapping myself instead.

"Uncle Zhang, don't worry too much, according to what Xiaoyang said, it shouldn't be difficult to get the money back." On the side, Cai Chunhong couldn't help but comfort.

For many people, 12,000 is not a small amount.

"Harm! What am I worried about, I should be happy! ”

Hearing Cai Chunhong's comfort, Uncle Zhang laughed instead, and said in a good mood: "Think about it, if I hadn't been deceived at the beginning, how would Xiao Ye find out about their problems?" If they continue to deceive people in this way without being discovered, how many people will be deceived? It's worth it! ”

didn't even need anyone to explain it, Uncle Zhang himself saw it.

Ye Xiangyang and Cai Chunhong were stunned, and they were slightly relieved to see that Uncle Zhang was not pretending.

At the same time, I admire Uncle Zhang's thoughts!

The pattern opens up all at once!
